[04/30/2022 @19:35]: Can you have an Internet Spaceship clock without a Cobra Mk III on it?

I like working with microcontrollers and other small systems. They provide constraints and constraints make all creative endeavors better. They define the space that can be filled so you can find solutions to filling it. It may seem like the opposite may be true but there is nothing more terrifying than a blank piece of paper, or an empty directory and nothing more over-engineered than something where 'money is no object'.

So anyway, I've been playing Elite Dangerous again lately and while working on some flight control hardware I wanted to make a captain's clock. I also have been meaning to update my tooling to support the newer Microchip ATmega328pb part that seems to be replacing the venerable ATmega328p of Arduino fame so why not make this that project. This of course begged the question, would it really be a homage to Elite Dangerous without a Cobra Mk III wireframe silkscreened on the board?

I sure don't think so.
